Thirteen of Truitt's sculptures, made between 1962 and 2004, will be on view, making this the most comprehensive exhibition of Truitt's work in New York in almost twenty years. The works on view range from White: Four, 1962, made the year before her first one-person exhibition in New York, to Return, 2004, which Truitt completed shortly before she died at age eighty-three. Seen together, the sculptures in the exhibition should offer an introduction to Truitt's work and provide a sense of her unique artistic achievement.
